Every so often my bump goes REALLY hard..

[lizzieandzara]

..and flops to one side... did it about 4 times while i was watching tv lastnight.
What is this? It doesnt hurt or anything.. just feels really strange!

sounds like braxton hicks (practice contractions)...it looks like its gone to one side because the womb goes hard and emphasises the area where LO is lying...I have been getting lots of these

 

[lizzieandzara]

But arnt braxton hicks supposed to hurt? (they hurt rachel {jennifer anniston} in friends haha) x

it could be your baby moving as well and the hardness that you can feel might well be its back

lol I thought the same but I have been having what you are discribing and someone said to me it sounds like BH I think it depends it hurts some and others not

 

[lizzieandzara]

well i am hoping that means i will be tough and labour wont hurt me either ha wishful thinking! x

 

[~NEL~]

I sometimes get this aswell, always thought they were Braxton Hicks.
